I used this app for years. I've done all of my artwork on this app and have them saved in a folder on my phone. Recently I had to delete the app for a bit, not even for a week. When I reinstalled it and opened the app, after attempting to choose the artwork folder, it immediately crashes. I've tried multiple times, uninstalling, reinstalling, clearing space, clearing the cache. Not a thing worked. I'm getting ready for an art show and I need this to finish an art piece. Please fix this!! 🙏

this has become my primary drawing app over the last few years, and the frequent updates make it even better. got the premium version as soon as it was added, since the price was super worth it. there are little things I'd love added or fixed, like the nudge transform arrows centering on the picture, not the screen, making me have to zoom out, and a tool/mode for pixel art would be nice (a grid, no spill over into neighboring pixels)

PLEASE PEOPLE BE SLEEPING ON THIS (especially since it's free) the amount of freedom and how simple it is to work with if you just explore a little with things is insane. if there was an animation software for free I would definitely try it out. The things I adore: -the versatility when editing what a brush looks like -predictive stroke -layer settings
